Sorry to see Verry Elleegant now beaten 4 times in Europe. I think the owner should bring her back to Chris Waller and spell for the Autumn in Sydney. No doubt she could win another group 1 or 2 if under the care of Waller and J Mac .

I reckon verry elleegant retires, reckon the melb cup took a bit too much out of her. I'm interested to see incentivise attack the autumn, perhaps the queen elizabethQuote:

Interested to hear from any punter (s) who scored on Oaks Day (Ladies Day) at the Melbourne cup. I hear it's a jackpot of bees in a honey pot.Quote:

Have something each way on no. 3 Knights Order, currently $17 for the win and $4.80 for the place with TAB fixed odds. He won the Sydney Cup on Heavy 10 leading all the way. Proven 2 miler (also won the Brisbane Cup the year before) and loves the wet. Failed last year in the Cup but the ground was very firm, didn't suit this former European horse.
Good luck to us.
Cheers
ps. 2 Pointsbet is offering a Bonus Bet Return on the Cup, up to $50 back in bonus bet if your horse didn't win but ran 2nd, 3rd or 4th. Just put my $50 on @$16.00 with the daily Booster to $18.00 - $900 for the win !!
ps. will share my Trifecta tips tomorrow.
1. Without a Fight
2. Realm of Flowers
3. Gold Trip
Hi Rooster and Ahlunghor request for tips for today's race bro
Thanks
OK, I waited all morning and the rain finally came, so here are my Trifecta Tips for the Melbourne Cup 2022:
1. Gold Trip, top weight in the Caulfield Cup and almost won it, top weight here, but still only a couple of Kg more than the Internationals, so we got to respect
the placing and the final tune up run in the Cox Plate. $21
3. Knights Order, my pick for the win, will be leading into the straight and hard to run down. won the Brisbane Cup on a good track by 4.75L, and lead all the way in this years Sydney Cup in Heavy 10. Dead set two miler in the field. $13
4. Montefilia, classy mare, won 4 group 1's before, her Caulfield Cup 4th was full of merits. It's interesting to see the top 4 placings in the Caulfield Cup are in
similar order here in the Cup, the handicapper knew what he is doing. $10
6. Without a Fight, first of the European 3/4 years old, brings very good form here, don't know about the two miles and wet track, but they can stay and got to
put them in. $11
8. Deauville Legend, for the same reasons above and the red hot favourite, if he wins, most punters today will be happy ? $3.80
11. Young Werther, doesn't win that often, but he had placed in the VRC and AJC Derby, and ran 3rd and 2nd in the Turnbull Stakes this year and last year. also
had his final hit out in the Cox Plate and not that far behind Anamoe, he could be looking for two miles now ? $34
12. Hoo Ya Mal, those three words probably mean something rude in some Chinese dialects, failed in the St Ledger but previous win and a placing alongside
Deauville Legend ties him in. Gai paid a million to bring him over and we got to follow the money. $15
24. Realm of Flowers, has firmed from $15 to $9 second favourite, very good wet track form and ran ok in a Sydney Cup before, did win the Ramsden (2800m)
at Flemington last year by 4.75L with 56kg, he carries 50kg only today. $9.00
Not a lot of outsiders above, so it's not gonna make you rich, but if we start including too many long shots, it's hard to win.
To box the 8 horses above in a Boxed Trifecta will cost you $336.00, half a unit = $168.00
Or, you can take 1, 3, 4, 24 to run 1st and 2nd, the field for third
1st: 1, 3, 4, 24
2nd:1, 3, 4, 24
3rd: Field
Cost $240.00, half a unit = $120
Please gamble responsibly and good luck to all of us, happy punting !!
Go Knights Order !!
I hope you put money on Gold Trip cos you spotted him!
I did, put $20 on it before they jump, I was getting really hopeful and excited when Knights Order took off around the back and leading into the straight , what I don’t understand is why Tim Clark didn’t come out to the middle of the track for better ground, in the end I think the extreme outside barrier had got him beat, used too much petrol early and nothing left in the last 200!Quote:

fck fuck fuck i had 2nd 3rd and 4th in quinella and trifecta
I still came out ahead because I backed emissary e/w but I had a lot more on it to win
Gold Trip saved my bacon, broke even.
Finally, we have seen some true contest and competitive matches in the Rugby League World Cup but had to wait until the Semi Finals.
But they are definitely worth the waiting for, the Aussie just edged pass the Kiwi by two points. And then Samoa beat England by a field goal in Golden Point !
So next Sunday we will see the Aussie Vs Samoa, but wait, isn’t it almost like a country vs country but in fact it’s teammates vs teammates?
4 Penrith back lines vs 4 Penrith forwards ! And Luai vs Cleary. I wonder who will be hitting who the harder ?
Samoa: recently beat Australia in RU:Final of RL World Cup: 70 guys in the NFL: Major part of the NZ, Aus, England Rugby teams. From a total population of 100,000 men. God help us all if they start taking it seriously.

But if you look at what Samoa could achieve in the space of 5 weeks: from getting steam rolled by England 60-6 in round 1 to beating the host country in a classic thriller 27-26 in the semi, they are in with a chance of upsetting the Aussies.
The Australian team is basically the best of the best from the origin teams , and they got a big scare from the Kiwis.
The Samoan probably can use a few more troops from their cousins in Fiji and Tonga. Just image if you add Jason Taumulolo, Kolomatangi, Taukeiaho and Koroisau to the Samoan forwards, they can definitely match it with the Aussies !
Pretty funny to see Italy defeat Australia in Rugby Union. Alastair from Macquarie Bank will be crying into his nose beers.
Anyone watching the Australia vs Samoa in RLWC final ?
Need two more of the Australian back line to also score a try to finally win some money in this World Cup’s same game multi.
you bloody beauty Australia! :cool2:
Mate, you are a true aussie sports fan. Setting the alarm to be up at 3 o'clock in the morning. :DQuote:

It’d be nice if they do well but do you think we have any chance against Denmark or France?Quote:

Still I will be up early, and staying up late cheering on the Socceroos again, just like I have been for decades.
It always ends in tears though.
I was not long 18 when we played Japan in the first game in 2006. I went with mates to the workers club to watch it about 2am and remember everyone going mental for Cahills first goal, and then it just escalated further when we won.Quote:
